1. Zingametall
a) History and locations
 Created in the late 70’s
 Started with ZINGA (Zinganisation)
• to fill the void between hot-dip and paints
• development in cooperation with:
University of Ghent (http://www.ugent.be/en)
Umicore (http://www.umicore.com/en/)
 Move to Eke, Belgium
Small country, but with lots of opportunities
(strong in chemicals)
 Applications started in Europe and later
all over the world
 Test reports and certificates followed
 ISO 9001:2008
 New website (a lot of information and updates)
(www.zinga.eu)
1. Zingametall
b) Current activities
 ZINGA as main system (film galvanisation)
• ideal combination advantages
o galvanisation (hot-dip, metallisation)
→ offer cathodic protection
o paints
→ passive protection
• reports/references
 Expansion of distributionship
• presence in Europe, Middle-East,
Asia, Africa, Australia, North-America
and more recently South-America
 Expansion of range of products
• primers
• sealers
• topcoats
2. ZINGA (film galvanisation)
a) Main Characteristic
 Active, cathodic, galvanic protection thanks to its high zinc content
• active, cathodic, galvanic protection due to its high zinc content
~ other galvanisation techniques (hot-dip, metallisation)
• passive barrier protection due to the zinc salt on top of the surface
and due to the binder in ZINGA (encapsulation of zinc particles)
~ paint
2. ZINGA (film galvanisation)
b)
Advantages
 Easy application on site and in workshop
(Zinganisation)
• by brush, roller, painting gloves,
spray-application
• can be applied on site, even
by non-professionals
Egypt, El Salaam Bridge
 Application in a wide range of weather conditions
• damp surface (no droplets)
• high or low temperatures
 Application under ambient temperatures
• no deformation
• no energy loss
Australia; high tension pylons
2. ZINGA (film galvanisation)
b)
Advantages
 Quick drying time
• new layer of ZINGA: after 1 hour
• topcoats can be applied after 4 to 24 hours
 Does not peel off and is not brittle
• will be compressed or squashed
• will not crack thanks to its flexibility
 Local damages can be repaired easily
(e.g. after transport or heavy mechanical impact)
Australia, culverts
2. ZINGA (film galvanisation)
b)
Advantages
 Galvanized structures can be recharged with ZINGA
• ZINGA
• Metallised or hot-dipped
 Each new layer of ZINGA blends perfectly
with the previous one.
Additional layers all blend to one single, homogeneous ZINGA layer
Gold particles on top of ZINGA
Gold particles blend

2. ZINGA (film galvanisation)
b)
Advantages
 Based on protected zinc by a special resin
• allows the formation of the galvanic couple
• also gives an additional protection
96% zinc in the dry layer of ZINGA
Very high amount of metallic zinc (97%)
Very high purity of the zinc granules (99,995%)
 Especially shaped zinc granules
provide bigger contact surface through which
they can attach to one another
ZINGA
2. ZINGA (film galvanisation)
b)
Advantages
 Can be topcoated by a large number of compatible paints
duplex systems will more than double the lifetime
 Topcoats from the same supplier
(see our systems)
 fire retardant properties
(will not spread flames)
Belarus, subway
2. ZINGA (film galvanisation)

d) Report/certificates
Report and certificates from all over the world.
Some of them are:
 British Board of Agrément
major approval body in the UK
“In the opinion of the British Board of Agrément, Zinga is fit
for its intended use provided it is
installed, used and maintained as set out in this Certificate.”
BBA certificate
 BNF Fulmer Research Institute
same galvanic protection as hot-dip at a depletion
rate of 1/3
(when immersed ~ Pier legs in Killybegs, Ireland)
•“Zinga offers galvanic protection to steel comparable to that offered
by galvanised steel.
•Under the continuous immersion conditions studied, the Zinga coated
mild steel specimens corroded at a lower rate than galvanised zinc coated
specimens.
•The electrochemical work has confirmed that Zinga is a corrosion resistant
zinc coating which protects mild steel effectively under simulated marine conditions.”

d) Report/certificates
 Det Norske Veritas
practical ballast tank test
Tests done:
“180 days testing in condensation chamber
180 days testing in wave tank
Evaluation of results after testing, including blister detection
(when applicable), undercutting from scribe, adhesion and coating flexibility”
DNV
Conclusion
“The results from the performed testing show that Zinga coating has a beneficial corrosion
protective performance, probably due to its qualities with regard to cathodic protection
related to the high zinc content.”
 SGS Yarsley Technical Services (BS 476 part 6 and part 7)
no fire propagation
“In accordance with the Flame Spread Classification given in the Standard and reproduced above, the results show
that the material has a Class 1 surface.”
This is the best result possible.
